I Am Trying to Think but Nothing Happens

Stories about the King of Laughter Curly Howard, His Children, and Fans

Many books and documentaries have been published about Curly Howard. Curly was known by different names, but his real name was Jerone Lester Horowitz. At home, he was called babe, being the youngest of five boys. All five born in Hensonburg, Queen, New York, to parents Solomon Horowitz and his wife Jennie (Gorovitz) Horwitz, who migrated to the USA from Kaunas, Lithuania.

Curly was also named the king of comedy. A lot of Stooges fans do not know that Curly was the youngest brother to Shemp and Moe Howard, and he filmed ninety-six episodes of The Three Stooges before feeling ill and forced to leave his soaring acting career.

Curly had two daughters, Marilyn Howard and Jennie Howard. He passed on in January 18, 1952, a dark day in Hollywood, to lose one of the most iconic comedians of all time. His daughter Marilyn had three children, Darren, Andrea, and Bradley, while Jannie, his second daughter, had one daughter, Kelly Shank. Bradley and Andrea often gather with family and friends to maintain the laughter alive. Bradley has a YouTube channel Curly G, and they go live every Thursday at 5:00 p.m., Westen time, 8:00 p.m., Central, and 9:00 p.m. Eastern.

Also, check out the YouTube episode of Curly G visits his grandfather's grave for the first time ever. It is astonishing that a man who dies over seventy years ago has his spirit still alive. He still make people laugh, and he is still bringing family and friends together. All the magic is in this book, where Andrea Denise Server-Bell (Curly's granddaughter) and fan Robertino Yanzanny, team up to write a positive view about Curly and his family, fans, and friends.

Lifelong Fan and Author Robertino Yanzanny has done extensive research and interviews with living family members, principally Andrea Denise Server-Bell, Curly's granddaughter, to document and reveal the untold story of the Three Stooges' most beloved innovative comedian and brother, Curly Howard (real name is Jerome Lester Horwitz).

Having grown up with The Three Stooges by way of television, I was profoundly moved by a recent visit to Curly's final resting place next to his parents and brother Shemp at a Jewish cemetery in East Los Angeles. There I met family members and a few fans who gathered to pay him tribute on the anniversary of his passing.

This book sheds new light and insights into the funny and tragic life of a member of Hollywood's most famous and enduring comic trio, the Three Stooges.
